Math Problem Statement

(3 + 2) × 4 + 10 ÷ (8 - 3) = ?

Solution

The given mathematical expression is:

(3+2)×4+10÷(83)=(3 + 2) \times 4 + 10 \div (8 - 3) =

Let's solve it step-by-step by following the order of operations (PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)):

Step 1: Simplify inside the parentheses

  • 3+2=53 + 2 = 5
  • 83=58 - 3 = 5

Now the expression becomes: 5×4+10÷55 \times 4 + 10 \div 5

Step 2: Perform multiplication and division (from left to right)

  • 5×4=205 \times 4 = 20
  • 10÷5=210 \div 5 = 2

Now the expression is: 20+220 + 2

Step 3: Perform addition

20+2=2220 + 2 = 22

So, the value of the expression is:

22\boxed{22}
